Comforts of Home Advanced Assisted Living

The place is beautiful and is in a cozy location, it has staff that truly care for your loved ones and make them a part of their family too. You feel at home with Comforts of Home in Menomonie.

My daughter Ashley lived at COH for the past 11 years until her passing in August of this year. She loved living there and became close with several members of the staff. They took very good care of her. I would have given 5 stars, but my concern was with the amount of staff at night. As Ashley's health declined, she needed more monitoring. Many residents need attention in the evening and at night and I feel that more staff hiring would ease the demand on staff and make them more available to the residents. That is my only suggestion. The place was always warm and inviting and I know it was the best choice for my daughter who would have never been able to live on her own. We were both very happy with her residing there for as many years as she did and I would recommend the facility to anyone looking for that special place for their loved one.

I have the pleasure of being the Activities Director in the Assisted Living building in Menomonie for the last eleven years. In the past several of my relatives have lived at this facility! They have received absolutely nothing but the best care. I strive to offer one of the best activities programs in the area. We have had educational presentations, musical entertainment, outings to local places of business, large group games, cooking corner, crafting, book club, you name it if the tenants have expressed an interest I try my best to make it happen. We have a flourishing volunteer program to provide one to one visits etc. I would never hesitate to recommend this facility. Life is definitely not over when a family member moves into our facility it's just getting started! It is my personal goal to offer many ways for my seniors to continue to grow every day!

No stars for Comforts of Home Memory Care from my family! They hugely misrepresented their abilities. The memory care unit is terribly understaffed with poorly qualified (though nice) people. On weekends, they only have 2 staff members for 40 residents! Those staff members are not even CNA's; they have minimal training and none of it in actual nursing. My mother moved there to be closer to us, in Menomonie. She was there for just under 3 weeks and fell 3 times (twice requiring an ambulance to the hospital) after not having had a fall for many months at her previous home (Colfax Health & Rehab). She moved back to Colfax several weeks ago and has not fallen a single time since. ***My family and I strongly urge you to find a different facility if your loved one needs ANY help beyond very basic babysitting-type oversight.*** The staff at Comforts of Home are well-intentioned and seem very nice, but they simply don't have adequate training nor expertise.
